What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026
The iSwitch is a compact, 75mm Bluetooth switch that lets someone control a tablet, phone, or computer with a single press instead of a touchscreen, mouse, or keyboard. It can send left, right, and double mouse clicks, plus 24 pre-programmed modes that cover common keystrokes like space and enter for switch-accessible apps and games. It also has media controls for play/pause, skip, and volume, and timed play options of 10 or 30 seconds for reward-based activities. Two ports on the unit accept extra switches, so you can build a setup with more than one input. Because it is one piece of a larger access setup, a therapist can help choose the right mode, switch placement, and device settings.

What setup looks like
- Out of the box
Press the switch once it is paired to trigger the mode you have selected, such as a click or a keystroke. - With a guide
- Turn on the iSwitch and pair it with your device over Bluetooth, the same way you would pair any Bluetooth accessory.
- Pick one of the 24 modes (for example mouse click, space, enter, or media control) to match the app or game you are using.
- On an iPad or iPhone, you may also need to turn on Switch Control in the device's accessibility settings. Plan on 20-30 minutes for first-time setup. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
- With professional help
An OT, SLP, or ATP can help choose the best mode, switch position, and any extra switches for the person's movement and goals. Allow one session of about an hour, with follow-up as skills grow.
